Hallo

Ich habe diese Wetterstation Renkforce WH2315

Wenn jemand weis das diese Wetterstation mit weewx auf Lununtu oder Raspberry pi kompatibel ist da soll er mir sagen was ich falsch gemacht habe.

https://www.conrad.at/de/p/renkforce-wh2300-wh2315-funk-wetterstation-vorhersage-fuer-12-bis-24-stunden-1404262.html

Das Programm weewx habe ich auf einem Laptop mit Lubuntu 16.04 und einem raspberry pi 3 v1.2 installiert.

Ob das richtig installiert ist wies ich nicht aber es lässt sich starten und es startet.

Die Wetterstation wird auch nach Eingabe von lsusb im Terminal angezeigt.

modelleisenbahn@modelleisenbahn-LIFEBOOK-E-Series:~$ lsusb

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

modelleisenbahn@modelleisenbahn-LIFEBOOK-E-Series:~$

Wenn ich dann weewx starte oder es schon gestartet ist wird folgendes angezeigt.

modelleisenbahn@modelleisenbahn-LIFEBOOK-E-Series:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start

[sudo] password for modelleisenbahn:

* Starting weewx weather system weewx [ OK ]

May 5 11:24:55 modelleisenbahn-LIFEBOOK-E-Series weewx[2451]: **** Exiting...

Nun habe ich in der weewx.conf etwas eingefügt wie in einer anderen Zeile beschrieben.

weewx StdReport exits if USB disconnected

# Keeping retrying!

loop_on_init = 1

Danach wird im Terminal alle 60 Sekunden folgendes angezeigt.

Unable to load driver: Unable to find USB device

Zum Abschluss ist diese Wetterstation mit weewx auslesbar oder nicht wenn ja was habe ich bei der Installation oder beim einstellen falsch gemacht.

Grüße Günther

Danke für die Antwort.

Auf dem Lubuntu Laptop konnte ich den Treiber installieren.

Das ganze funktioniert auch.

Aber auf dem Raspberry konnte ich den Treiber nicht installieren und das mit dem

sudo wee_config --reconfigure

funktioniert auch nicht.

Ist da ein anderer Syntax?

Sonst passt alles ich kann meine Daten von der Renkforce jetzt auf Wunderground hochladen.

difficult to diagnose without knowing how you installed weewx on the pi and what response you see when you type the wee_config command.

if you installed using setup.py then you will need to full path to wee_config

Hallo

ich betreibe die Selbe Station

schau mal in deine weewx.conf ob das so da drinne steht.

[WH23xx]
    # This section is for Fine Offset WH23xx stations

    # The model name such as Tycon, or TP2700
    model = Tycon TP2700

    polling_mode = PERIODIC

    polling_interval = 60


    # The driver to use

Hallo

nach dem ich den Syntax verstanden habe und folgende Zeilen im Terminal eingegeben habe hat es funktioniert.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_extension --install weewx-wh23xx.zip

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_config --reconfigure

Noch eine Frage wie ändere ich richtig die Einstellungen in der weewx.conf

Ich mach das so ist das Korrekt oder sollte man das anders machen?

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo nano weewx.conf

Danke noch mal

Nach geschlagenen fünf Jahren funktioniert nun das Daten aufzeichnen meiner Wetterstation ohne das ich das Windows Programm starten muss.

Andrew,

I think you might mean word processors or other 'formatted' editors. I would be lost without a GUI code editor.

Hi,

As I did not get Matthew's driver working, I looked further and found that 'userbogd' fixed a log_trackback import error (https://github.com/userbogd/weewx-wh23xx ), and then I found out that I ran into Python3 issues and fixed the code for Python3 support on top of Bogdan's fix (https://github.com/EdwinGH/weewx-wh23xx )

Hope it works for you as well.

Edwin

Hello with the driver my station has been working since last year in May.

I would only be interested in whether the driver also works with the new version 4 or 4.1 with Phyton 3.

I don't dare to install the new version 4 if the driver doesn't work with Python 3.

Hallo mit dem Treiber funktioniert meine Station auch schon seit letztes Jahr im Mai.

Mich würde nur interessieren ob der Treiber auch mit der neuen Version 4 oder 4.1 mit Phyton 3 funktioniert.

Den ich traue mich nicht die neue Version 4 zu installieren wenn der Treiber nicht mit Python 3 funktioniert.

I'm using Weewx 4.1 with the upgraded driver for Python3, and it works for me.

I have not used older versions of weewx, nor Python2, so cannot comment on upgrading.

The fixes in the driver were quite straightforward (import, print and exception statement fixes), and on my GIT fork for download: https://github.com/EdwinGH/weewx-wh23xx/archive/master.zip

Hi,

I have just updated my weewx installation from python2 to python3, but Edwin's fork of this driver is not working for me. The error is in the file /usr/share/weewx/user/wh23xx.py. Line 259 is missing the keyword "import" (already wrong in Bogdans fork).

The line is:

from weeutil.log log_traceback
but it sould be

from weeutil.log import log_traceback

After that change it's working now with python3

Thank you, Roland! I included your fix into drivers code. Also added overlogging fix. So, now seems it is possible to use this driver further.

Hi all,

I've been following your discussion with interest and I've just set up my own station:

WH2315 (Renkforce from Conrad)
Raspberry Pi 3B
weewx 4.3.0
driver is wh23xx (I think it's the one that has Edwin's and Bogdan's fixes, as it says in the file's preamble "Updated to Python 3 support, tested with Renkforce 2315")
Python 2.7.16 (according to python -V)

My question: Everything seems to work fine according to the output of weewxd and the system log (see below). Just that windchill and heat index seem to be ignored by weewx (see weewxd output) and are not displayed on the website. In the driver file it says that wh23xx does handle windchill / heatindex though. Both winchill and heat index show up on the indoor module of the weather station.

Being a python illiterate myself, I hope anyone of you can help.

Thanks a lot!

Cheers,

Holger

Just one point of clarification, python -V will display the python version used when the python is invoked from the command line, that is not necessarily the version of python used by WeeWX. To find the version of python used by WeeWX you need to look at the WeeWX log during startup, it will list the python version being used by WeeWX.

Thank you, Gary. I wasn't aware of that. And indeed, the log during startup says that weewx uses python 3.7, although I wasn't aware of installing it. I just flashed the whole OS from an image "as is" and never updated python. At least that's what I thought.

So, what does that mean now? I'm confused...

Grateful for any clues.

OK, I set "windchill" and "heatindex" in weewx.conf to "software" (default was "hardware"). Now I've got values in weewx's output.

Ladies and Gentlemen

Once again I need your help, how is it possible to use the weather station I use with weewx version 5.0.

I managed to install the new version of weewx and also the driver. It only shows an error message during reconfiguration.

With this command I installed the driver

weektl extension install weewx-wh23xx-master.zip

What have I done wrong again?

Thanks for the help and have a nice Easter holidays!

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren

Wieder einmal brauche ich eure Hilfe, wie ist es möglich die von mir verwendete Wetterstation mit weewx Version 5.0 zu verwenden.
Ich habe es geschaft die neue Version von weewx zu installieren und auch den Treiber. Nur bei der Rekonfiguration zeigt es eine Fehlermeldung an.

Mit diesem Befehl habe ich den Treiber installiert.
weectl extension install weewx-wh23xx-master.zip

Was habe ich wieder einmal falsch gemacht.

Danke für die Hilfe und noch schöne Osterfeiertage!

It appears that the wh23xx driver has not been ported to Python 2.

I did a quick port of the driver. It has not been tested!

Find it here: https://github.com/tkeffer/weewx-wh23xx

If it works for you, I'll ask Matthew to incorporate the changes.

Two things:

1. You are still using the original version of the driver. You want my patched version at https://github.com/tkeffer/weewx-wh23xx

2. What version of weewx are you using? Early beta versions of v5.0 could not recognize a zip file, but current releases do.

Hello, I think I have solved the problem.

The driver from the following link wget -O weewx-wh23xx.zip https://github.com/EdwinGH/weewx-wh23xx/archive/master.zip

works, at least there is no error message when reconfiguring the weather cities.

Thanks for the help and I'll definitely need something from YOU again soon.

Another nice day from Austria

Hallo ich glaube ich habe das Problem gelöst.
Der Treiber von folgendem Link wget -O weewx-wh23xx.zip https://github.com/EdwinGH/weewx-wh23xx/archive/master.zip

funktioniert zumindest kommt keine Fehlermeldung bei der Rekonfiguration der Wetterstadtionen.

Danke für die Hilfe und ich brauche sicher bald wieder etwas von EUCH.
Noch einen schönen Tag aus Österreich

You can register the station on weewx.com, where it will be included in a
map. If you choose to register, you will also need a unique URL to identify
the station (such as a website, or a WeatherUnderground link).
register this station (y/n)? [y] y

Now give a unique URL for the station. A Weather Underground

I was just going to point that out!

With V5, it's actually easiest to install directly from the URL:

weectl extension install https://github.com/EdwinGH/weewx-wh23xx/archive/master.zip
